 CALL TO ALL 2024 GRADUATES

Glass Sellers’ CGS PRIZE
and New Graduate Review 2024

CGS is pleased to announce the launch of the 2024 Graduate Prize and New Graduate Review.

We are delighted that once again, the Worshipful Company of Glass Sellers of London Charity Fund has supported the Prize and Review together with Professor Michael Barnes MC FRCP and our other sponsors, Creative Glass, Pearsons Glass, Warm Glass and Neues Glas - New Glass: Art & Architecture.

As students emerge from their education, CGS and the Glass Sellers’ aim to support graduates at the beginning of their journey towards a long career in glass making.

The Graduate Review offers graduates the chance to promote their work to a worldwide audience, and many previous winners have gone on to establish themselves as professional makers.

There will be a Winner, Second Prize, plus two Runners-up prizes, along with several Commendations. 

All will appear in the Glass Sellers’ CGSNew Graduate Review 2024.
